Mr Puah, when contacted, said he had made his stand clear on his Facebook page - he was still with PH and they would not give up. Asked about his earlier stand to support the new PN coalition during his meeting with Johor's ruler, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, before switching back to PH the next day, he said he was initially told that Bersatu's Datuk Sahruddin Jamal would remain the menteri besar.
